About this ebook
An Army Colonel, under orders to vacate an underground Bio-Chem research bunker at the close of World War II, illegally buries toxic waste in an isolated Keyly, Kansas farmer's field. Forty-five years later, a brown odorous slime saturates the local farmer's storage bins filled to the brim with crops grown from a new experimental seed that has merged with the waste. Agriculturist Ronald Huntly retires from the Army and relocates to Keyly after attending his mother's funeral there. Upon arriving in Keyly, Huntly and the local residents soon learn the contaminated crops have caused hoards of grasshoppers to mutate into carnivorous killer swarms. The Governor asks the U.S. Army for help warding off the vicious attackers. But when the troops arrive, they are under orders to exterminate more than just insects.
About the author
Starting with a 1980 creative writing class at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, I have felt the need to write adventure novels. Toward that end I have studied under mentors John Tigges, Carolyn Banks, and many others. Also, I have completed a number of correspondence writing courses to better learn the craft. I loved the Allan Quartermain series and have written a number of adventure novels in an attempt at joining in all the fun. I've been writing unpublished works for over ten years, but now have a number of published, or soon to be published, works to my credit. Of course I continue working on a number of WIP's that will someday, hopefully, also find a home at Amazon and elsewhere in the book industry. My five book Johnny Walker Series is published by Whiskey Creek Press.
